My New Campaign

Prologue 1

JAN/11

Morituuus and his two minions Orkorkork and Narg are at his house in Targon the great port city and capital of Targonia. They are hatching some kind of evil scheme when Morituuus’ alarm system sounded. He conjured up an image of the intruder and found Sutirom breaking right through the front door. Sutirom was a high elf warlock who Morituuus had run into a couple weeks before. They were both on the trail of a unicorn in order to get its horn as an ingredient for a spell.

The two parties clashed and Sutirom’s partner, a young female hunter and his bird familiar were killed in the process, while Morituuus got the unicorn horn. Sutirom escaped crying out that he “had come so close”, he vowed revenge on Morituuus. A revenge that he was going after right then. Sutirom was going straight into Morituuus’ lair, backed up by a number of conjured demons, a Voidwalker, a Succubus, and a Doomguard. Apparently Sutirom really meant business.

Morituuus gathered up Orkorkork and Narg and teleported them to a secret cavern underneath his building. It was a narrow terraced room where the length and width of each step allowed Orkorkork to swing his weapon completely around, but not much of a buffer after that. Moriuuus positioned himself on the topmost step, Narg went on the third step and Orkorkork the fifth. There were ten steps in total.

After everybody was in place, Morituuus located Sutirom’s party and created a vortex in the floor of their room, pulling the entire party through to deposit them on the bottom step of his secret cavern.

Morituuus exclaims, “How dare you try to invade me in my stronghold. I am the master of this place.”

Sutirom replied, “I come to exact my revenge for what you have taken from me. I warn you mageling, I have nothing left to live for but see you suffer.”

They fight.

Morituuus and his party defeat Sutirom.

With his last dying breath Sutirom exclaims, “Forgive me my love. I was too late.”

Morituuus loots Sutirom’s dead body and finds a moderate amount of treasure. There’s some gold, gems, a few artifacts of note, and a couple decent spell scrolls. The most intriguing thing that he found was a map to Sutirom’s secret lair.

“Well, well, well. Perhaps there is still something precious that I can take from you.” Mwa ha ha.
